The school, located in three adjoining buildings at 53-55 st. stephen’s green enjoys a city-center location. However, the majority of its students, drawn from a wide geographical area, largely come from the north and south Dublin suburbs, north County Dublin, County Meath, Co. Wicklow, and Co. Kildare. These have been the traditional catchment areas for the school over many years. Each year, approximately thirty students from the Loreto Junior School (on the same site) enter the first year, making up about one-third of the annual intake. There is a small intake of students, generally from other schools, into other classes, when vacancies exist. Loreto College is a traditional school in that families, over generations, have tended to send their daughters there. Ninety-six girls are admitted to the new first-year each autumn. They are divided into four class groups and this remains the pattern for the school. Class size remains at this level and year groups in the school do not exceed ninety-six students. Welcome to the Loreto College St. Stephen’s Green website. The school was founded in 1833 in the tradition of Mary Ward (1585-1645).

A keen sense of community and collaborative teaching and learning is fostered by everyone. Each student is recognized and celebrated for her unique talents and gifts.

On September 5, 1833, Mother Teresa Ball and a small group of nuns took possession of No. 58, Harcourt Street, Dublin. Here Mother Teresa proposed to open a Day School. Eleven years earlier, Mother Teresa had founded Loreto House, Rathfarnham and she now extended her work of education to the city. On September 23, 1833, the school opened its doors to receive pupils. Mother Teresa had been told that there was a great demand for such a school but, on an opening day, only one pupil presented herself. However, by January 1834, there were 27 pupils. As more accommodation was required, No. 53 St. Stephen’s Green, was purchased and the school moved from Harcourt Street to the Green on October 6th, 1841. By 1846 there were 20 boarders and 30-day students in “The Green.” On January 11, 1844, Daniel O’Connell visited the Green and enrolled his two grandchildren. In 1878 the Government set up a Board of Intermediate Education to re-organize and co-ordinate Secondary Education in Ireland. The Board drew up syllabi covering a wide range of subjects and divided them into three courses: Junior, Middle, and Senior Grades. Examinations were set at the end of each year and a generous scheme of rewards was provided with Exhibitions, Medals, and Prizes to be won by outstanding candidates in each Grade. For some time Catholic schools remained outside this scheme, however in 1880 the Loreto schools, including the Green, sat the Intermediate Examinations for that year. The Loreto pupils carried off several Exhibitions, Medals, and Prizes. During the late nineteenth century, the record of the Green was a glittering one, with pupils winning Exhibitions, Medals, and Prizes. In 1897, Green pupils won five Exhibitions and First Places in Classics, in Greek and Latin, as well as a Prize for English Composition. In addition to the Intermediate Examinations, the girls sat for the examinations of the Department of Science and Art, South Kensington, London, in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Magnetism and Electricity, Sound, Light and Heat, and in Geometry. They also sat for examinations in Freehand Drawing, Model Drawing, Drawing from Cast, and Geometrical Drawing. Many of the girls learned the piano, the violin, and the harp, and took the examinations of the Incorporated Society of Musicians, London, the Royal College and Academy of Music, London, and the Local Centre examinations. In 1899, Mother Michael organized University Classes in the Green. The Royal University had been founded in 1878, but it was only an Examining Body. Women were allowed to sit for the examinations but were not allowed to attend lectures in the University College on St. Stephen’s Green, South. Courses were provided in the Green in French, German, Modern Literature, History, Jurisprudence, Mental and Moral Science, Philosophy, Metaphysics, as well as in Catholic Doctrine and Apologetics. No. 54, St. Stephen’s Green, was purchased and that house was allotted to the University Students. From that time forward, the establishment was known as “Loreto College.” In 1908, the National University of Ireland was established and University College, Earlsfort Terrace was opened to women students. Until 1911, when Loreto Hall, 77 St. Stephen’s Green, opened, University students stayed on in the Green and attended lectures in U.C.D. In 1907, a new three-story block was erected at the back of No. 53, with a Concert Hall on the ground floor, a Science Room and three classrooms on the second floor and top, there were nuns’ Cells. By 1922, a new era had begun in Irish Education. The Free State Government set up a Department of Education, which organized a new system of Secondary Education, with a six-year course of studies and two examinations within that period, the Intermediate Certificate Examination and the Leaving Certificate. There were other developments, too, at that time. The Loreto Examination system was set up, with programs for each Grade and examinations at the end of each year set by examiners for the Loreto schools. The Loreto Games League and the Loreto Debating Society were also founded at this time. The school buildings have been extended many times over the years. During the 1920s the Superior, Mother Albertus Culligan, an Australian, built a refectory for the boarders in the old 54 garden. Over it, she erected a library. The next extension came in 1956 when the old music cells were demolished and a four-story building was erected. This comprised a shoe room and a new laundry on the ground floor, four new classrooms on the next floor, an art room, another classroom and new music rooms on the third floor, and top, a large dormitory. The Concert Hall was also enlarged. A further extension was made when St. Vincent’s Hospital was transferred to Elm Park. It then became possible to buy No. 55. In 1986 a fire partially destroyed the College and Convent tragically claiming the lives of six Loreto Sisters. A decision was taken to move the school temporarily to Harcourt Street where an office block at number 79 was leased for two years. In 1988 “The Green” was reopened with entirely new sections added to the original buildings. View full school

To become confident, self-assured women, girls need the right challenges. Loreto Mandeville Hall Toorak has created an environment where your daughter will be nurtured, challenged, and encouraged to be the best that she can be. Each year, Loreto Toorak presents its academic results with pride. But this is only one aspect of our holistic approach to education. Our shared focus is an authentic Loreto experience that provides our students with the challenges and opportunities they need to excel in life indeed. At Loreto, we believe that overcoming challenges can lead to incredible things. It is through these challenges that our school was born. Four hundred years ago, English woman Mary Ward faced extraordinary opposition to establish the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary (IBVM) - also known as the Loreto Sisters. Click the link below to learn more about Mary Ward. In Australia, the foundation was led by Mother Mary Gonzaga Barry IBM, who, in 1875, established Catholic primary and secondary schools in Ballarat. Today, there are seven Loreto Schools in Australia and over 90 throughout the rest of the world. Loreto Toorak was established in 1924 and continues this worldwide tradition. Our goal is to foster the foundation for a mature and robust faith in each student – in God, herself, and life. With these values, she will be equipped to embrace all the challenges, joys, and adventures that lie ahead in life. The Mission and Vision of our school are enunciated, in detail, in the Mission Statement Document, a foundational document of our school's philosophy. The Loreto Toorak Educational philosophy is values-based and framed around an equal commitment to Social Justice and Academic excellence and could be summarised thus This is our vision: that Loreto schools offer a Catholic education which liberates, empowers, and motivates students to use their gifts with confidence, creativity, and generosity in loving and responsible service. Our goal is to foster each student the foundation for a robust and mature faith – in God, in herself, and life. These foundations will provide a vibrant core of values and beliefs that will stand her in good stead to face and, indeed, to embrace all the challenges, the joys, and the adventures that lie ahead in life. The tradition in which we stand is proudly and confidently committed to an education of the whole child, both heart and mind, and based on a robust set of Loreto values. These lie at the heart of all our endeavors. We embrace genuine values of freedom, justice, sincerity, verity, and felicity. With these values, we foster mutual respect, a deep understanding of the individual, and compassion for the broader community. Living with sincerity was something Mary Ward always envisaged. Her idea was that "we should be such as we appear and appear such as we are." Closely linked to sincerity is Mary Ward's concept of verity. For Mary, this meant having integrity and truth, particularly the truth of who we are and what gives meaning to our lives - a truth that centers fundamentally on the mystery of God. Felicity is an attitude of mind, a disposition of the heart that manifests itself in cheerfulness, good humor, joy, happiness, hope, optimism, friendliness, courtesy, positive thinking, inner peace, and self-acceptance and courage. The qualities of freedom, justice, and sincerity are at the core of Mary Ward's spirit. Her understanding of freedom was grounded in her sense of personal relationship with God. She believed that each of us has access to God's loving care in our everyday life experience. This is the truth that sets us free. It is inner freedom, accepting of self, open to others, and trusting of life. Justice, as Mary Ward describes it, involves personal integrity based on a harmonious relationship with God, other people, and with the whole of creation. It is expressed through "works of justice" that aspire to bring about such harmony. View full school

Welcome to Loreto College Marryatville, South Australia's leading all-girls day and boarding school, catering for students from Early Learning to Year 12.

Being one of seven Australian Loreto Schools united by the vision of Mary Ward, the College prides itself on the development of intense, passionate, and confident girls and young women who have the social consciousness to make a difference to our world. A Loreto education is built from a 400-year-old foundation that articulates the importance of educating girls and young women to actively take place in society and influence their world through a set of strong values and beliefs. In delivering this view, Loreto College Marryatville provides girls with a well-rounded education where students are presented with a broad range of opportunities and given the support and encouragement needed to become confident and engaged learners. Loreto has a strong reputation as an outstanding girls' school due to our academic and sporting success history. Loreto girls have a long and steady tradition of State and National achievement in a range of curriculum areas producing two South Australia's Rhodes Scholars and one Schwarzman Scholar. Likewise, our girls have represented Loreto at a State and National level in a wide variety of individual and team sports. This success is made possible by our dedicated staff who work with the girls in achieving their personal best. The Australian Curriculum is the Reception to Year 10 curriculum framework for schools in South Australia. It sets the expectations for what students are taught across the various learning areas English, Mathematics, Science, Humanities and Social Sciences, The Arts, Technologies, Health, and Physical Education and Languages. A rich, and multi-dimensional framework, the Australian Curriculum provides teaching staff with the flexibility to design interdisciplinary, inquiry-based learning opportunities that allow our students to experience a world beyond their own. In addition to the Australian Curriculum, learning at Loreto is also informed by the Keeping Safe: Child Protection Curriculum, the Crossway Catholic Education curriculum, and The Made in the Image of God Human Sexuality Education program for SA Catholic Schools. Students in the Senior Years will complete the South Australian Certificate of Education. The South Australian Certificate of Education (SACE) is an internationally recognized qualification that provides various study options for students, with the flexibility to find an ideal pathway to post-secondary education. We invite you to visit Loreto College, take a tour of our school, and meet the students, teachers, and community that make our school one of Adelaide's top private girls' schools. Spanning more than 400 years, the Loreto education tradition was first inspired by the foundress of the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary (IBVM), Mary Ward, and established in the Australian context by Gonzaga Barry IBVM in the late 19th Century. Mary Ward was an inspirational leader, believing passionately that "women, in time to come, will do much" and that a vital education focused on girls and women would create "seekers of truth and doers of justice" to take action to improve the world for others. Loreto schools encapsulate the beliefs and spirit of Mary Ward in delivering an education that inspires intense, passionate, and confident girls and young women. Are these characteristics that you can see most clearly in our girls, and is what differentiates us from other schools? All Loreto schools in Australia share the same values: freedom, justice, sincerity, verity, and felicity. These values are at the heart of our educational philosophy and shape our identity as a school. Mary Ward's understanding of freedom flowed from her relationship with God and her belief that each of us has access to God's loving care in our everyday experience of life. This is the truth that sets us free. It is inner freedom, an acceptance of self, an openness to and with others, and a trust in life. Justice, as Mary Ward describes, involves personal integrity based on harmonious relationships with God, with other people, and with the whole of creation. It is expressed in "works of justice", in active participation in the struggle to bring about such harmony. We are challenged "to be seekers of truth and doers of justice". Sincerity is our communication and relationship with others – an essential characteristic of the personal integrity Mary Ward envisaged. Her idea was that "we should be such as we appear and appear such as we are." Closely linked to sincerity is Mary Ward's concept of verity. For her, it means integrity and truth, particularly the profound truth of who we are and what gives meaning to our lives, a truth that centers fundamentally on the gift of life and mystery of God. Felicity is an attitude of mind, a disposition of the heart that manifests itself in cheerfulness, good humor, joy, happiness, hope, optimism, friendliness, courtesy, positive thinking, inner peace, and self-acceptance and courage. From Early Learning to the Senior Years, a Loreto education is encompassed by Freedom, Justice, Sincerity, Verity, and Felicity. These values reflect and shape the College's underlying culture and ensure that our focus is always on the development of compassionate, kind, respectful, and positive individuals who believe in and practice Christian values. Having an open mind and heart ensures that students of Loreto are always tolerant and empathetic towards others. Such an approach ensures students become responsible and ethical citizens who will shape their future world to better themselves and society. Loreto students are nearly robust, passionate, and confident. These outcomes are facilitated through targeted and systematic approaches aimed at enriching the individual. For children to flourish, they must be provided with a supportive environment, both pastorally and academically, where they feel challenged to strive for their best. We look forward to welcoming you to our College and accompanying you as you journey through learning more about what it means to have a Loreto education to becoming part of our Loreto family.
